Three years ago Jacob Sharp was

Broadway Surface Railroad in New
York. Another corporation had nj
ready tahen steps to obtain the fran
chise, aud had IF red large sum for
tl,e privilege. Sharp proposed To pay
nothing, and later ffered to pay less
than the other company. This did
not stand in the way of solid vote
of twenty in the New York Board of
Aldermen in his favor In the faes nf
public protests and the Mayors veto.
An injunction To prevent the passage
of the grant over the Mayors vste
was got, aud Sharp bought il off by
paying to the lawyer who had the

was called of the Board ot Aldermen

lawyers the franchise was granted by
solid vote. At the same time the

The report OF General Black, com
missioner Of pensions, is Just out and
should be read by ali old soldiers
and sailors as it is full of suggestions
of the highest Importance to them.
If, after reading this report any one
can charge this democratic admins
tration with not being a friend to the
soldier and the soldiers widows and
orphans, then his sense of Justice is
so deadened by political prejudice
that he can neither hear nor see facts
as they appear to others. During
the year 81, IA new pensions were
added to the list, and 2,707 pension
ers who had been dropped from the
rolls were restored. Amount paid
for pensions during the year was
1913, 1888 an increase over the pre-
vious year of $685. $50. Estimate
for next year is $40, 045,2 $50.

THE opening of the lands to entry
which have long been held by land
grant railroads continues. The latest
move of this kind by the interior de
partment Is the throwing open to
settlement an unearned Immigrant
Of the branch line of the Atlantic
and Pacific Railroad Company ex-
tending westwardly from Van Buren,.
This is not very large tract, and con
sidering the millions of acres held
by the railroad corporations is but a
drop in the bucket. But it shows a
disposition on the part of the admin
lstration to stop the land thievlng
and that is something the people are
deeply interested in. 1t has come
to be custom with republican news
papers to sheer at the land reforms
of the administration and to assert
that the retaining of few thous.
and acres of land from the railroad
corporations is a small matter. Con
sidering how recklessly ard extsav-
agantly that party while in power
scattered tie valued acres of the peo-
pie am ong railroad corporations, it
is to be expected that the press Of
that party Will treat the subject with
a great deal Of flippancy. But it is
not question that can be dismissed
with scof and sneer. The great
parties have made repeated promis-
Uses to carry out the necessary land
reforms and reclaim from the greedy
and grasping railroads the land they
nnlawfu!ly hold from the people.
The Importance of this great ques-
tion and the abundance of good
work that has been done by the
present administration to further the
reforms are summed up by that lib
eral, Independent and able journal,
the New York Herald, as follows
"The land question has come to
the front, where it belongs. Reform
OF abuses has been begun in bust
Less like way. The corporations
shall have their rights, no more; the
people shall have their rights, no
less.
The country has an administra-
ton with a spinal column. It refus.
es TO play into the hands Of monop-
olists for political advantage. 1t
dares TO check their schemes Of az
grandlzement in the names Of honest
dealing and the nations future.
We hope that Mr.. Cleveland and
his secretary Of the interior will go
still furthur, and restore every acre
Of indemnity land throughout the
west to the public domain and open
it up for settlement.
There is good reason TO believe
that this will be done. The sooner
the better"
The present administration has
made an excellent showing in this
branch of reform work, and has kept
its pledges faithfully in this direc-
tion as promised in its platform in
1884. The land which belongs TO
the people is being reclaimed from
clutches Of the land robbers and
be held open for settlement by

wounded. For this crime Spies aud
his accomplices were tried, found
guilty by Jury and seven out of the
eight sentenced to be hung. Had
the tribunal of highest resort re-

Al Canning Factory.

The DEMOCRAT still insists upon
the establishment OF canning fac

following evidence to show the wis

our business men. A canning facto-
ry at RusseIlville could do as well as
the one at Fort Smith and Van Bu-
rem. Read what the papers say
about those two:
Fort Smith Daily Tribune: The
canning factory folks are feeling
very jubilant over the grade their
goods have taken in the ST. Louis
market. Their canned tomatoes are
quoted from at l0c. per dozen over
factories that have been running for
